A self-indulgent writerly moment regarding Glee
You know what the hardest part of writing something like the Immutability series is? Or, really, any long-form Glee story that’s not centered around school?
It’s not the research.
It’s not the writing itself, though lately that’s been kicking my ass.
It’s not even the completely off-kilter, inconsistent characters who say and do things that conflict with other...

It occurs to me that “Not the Boy Next Door” is the first song or part Kurt’s sung (other than “Pink Houses” which I try to block from my memory) that was originally sung by a man. Not in terms of group numbers where he gets a line, but when it comes to Kurt-centric songs where he’s either lead or dueting with someone. The boy’s done Madonna, Dionne Warwick,...

He was never as lonely as Kurt was- well…maybe not. Or maybe more, he’s not really sure. He remembers that high...

omg glee fuck you why couldn’t they kiss
yeah I blame this all on the glee creators
not kurt and blaine
in my mind they kissed so I REJECT YOUR REALITY AND INSERT MY OWN GLEE.
Actually I blame the network, not the creators. There are entire divisions devoted to what you’re allowed to show or not, and they literally send notes back to the show-runners...

Sometimes I just want to give Ewan McGregor a hug.
How can you NOT want to give him a hug in that? As the socially-awkward boy who loves his pigeons?

Shangela & Mimi Imfurst’s fight in the Interior’s Lounge during season 3 of Drag Race. (submitted by: La-goutte-dor)
Who’s betting Shangela has no idea who Leigh Bowery even was? (Is? I tend to assume all gay men who were famous in the 80s are dead but he might not be…)

I’m totally digging the techno beat on INRBIO. Yep, I said it. And I’m digging angry!sassy!Blaine. WERK.
Also, the tone of the song is giving me Bust Your Window vibes. I hope he has backing girls/guys.
Maybe I’ve only ever heard a remix or something, but I thought INRBIO already had a similar kind of techno beat to it. To go with the dominatrix-ish dress she was...

Hey they changed “man” to “woman” in “I Wanna Dance With Somebody”. I’m impressed.
This is the most shocking thing that’s ever happened to me.

Yeah. Now if only they could ever change ‘woman’ to ‘man’ in a Klaine song. Or let them actually sing to each other without it being all about Finchel or...

So which brave soul on my dash is going to be the one who listens to ‘I Have Nothing’ when it’s finally released?
Because I’m not listening to ANY OF THE SONGS, until I know who sings that song. I feel like most of my dash is the same as well. Someone relatively level headed needs to take one for the team - because I may just flip this cafe table over if I play the song and it’s not...

molly-aster:
In my view, if an author doesn’t ask for your critique of a fic … don’t give it. Even if the grammar is bad. Even if you don’t like the characterization. Even if you love the premise but wish it had been executed differently.
I see this occasionally, and even when it’s meant well, it always makes me cringe. And I say this as someone who is a HUGE stickler for grammar and style in...

I wanted to send this in an ask, but you don’t have one, so a reblog will have to do. While I agree with everything in this post (even though I haven’t seen the episode), I would especially like to thank you for pointing out that just because someone doesn’t understand, doesn’t mean they are disrespectful.
You pointed out that Kurt has been extremely sheltered his whole life and has hardly had...

Kurt has spent most of his life being called a girl. Being considered something other than a guy, something less
Please do be careful with stuff like this. I can’t tell if you think Kurt thinks being a girl is “less than” being a guy (I don’t think he does), or if he knows other people think that, or if YOU think that, and it’s a little disconcerting that I’m reading this and not exactly sure...

Potentially unpopular take on things from tonight
I hadn’t planned on writing anything about the Wade storyline beyond my earlier post (namely that it wasn’t nearly as offensive as it could have been), but seeing a few different people commenting about how nice it was to see that “Kurt’s not perfect” kind of got to me. Not because I think he is - I have spent more than a few episodes this year yelling at him - but...

I know Glee is about suspension of disbelief.
but
I STARTED COLLEGE APPS TEN MONTHS EARLIER THAN FINN DID AND STARTED THINKING ABOUT WHICH COLLEGES TO APPLY TO THE SUMMER BEFORE JUNIOR YEAR.
and it took me FIVE MONTHS to finalize all my applications.
even schools with rolling admissions would be unlikely to accept finn at this point LET ALONE give him scholarships.

As much as I could’ve given a shit about this week, times fifty, that’s how much I’m intrigued by the music for next week. It helps that I grew up on Whitney - and came out to Whitney, and have quite a bit of it in my main playlist. But what we heard of “How Will I Know” (A song I fucking adore), with the a cappella and harmonies like that?

There are exactly two things I like about this Very Special Storyline:
1) Matthew’s writing it so it’s not nearly as offensive as it would be if like anyone else were doing it;
2) It’s hopefully putting an end to the lingering “Kurt’s just like a girl!” crap that drives me crazy.

Am I the only one grousing about the lack of gay anthem songs considering it’s freaking disco? No Alicia Bridges, no Donna Summer, no Gloria Gaynor, no ABBA? Not a single song that’s also on the soundtrack of Priscilla: Queen of the Dessert? I’d even settle for the horrible song about a cake being left in the rain at this point! It’s like the butchest disco ever.

Oh god, who’s writing this? Is it a Brad episode? This is, like, the worst thing for Glee to write about ever. I may have to skip this one, or else be really angry.
ETA - meaning, skip everything but the Kurt/Rachel plot.
I smell an Ian attempt at something funny. Lovely.

Ah, Jane Lynch. The only spoiler source less reliable than Kristen.
